DEATH IN THE WATER.

section in one Of the leading cities of the
State were Frustrated with a malignant
disease, and upon investigation it was
found that only those who used water
from famous old we'll were the victims
Professor s. A. baltimore, analyst Of
the New York State Board of Health,
upon analyzing water from this we'll,
found it more deadly than the city
sewage!
The filling up Of the old we'll stopped
the ravages of the disease.
Not long since the writer noticed while
some men were making an excavation
for a large building, q stratum OF dark
colored earth running from near the
surface to hard pan. There 1t took an
other course toward we'll near at hand.
The water from this we'll had for years
been tainted with the DRAWINGS from a
receiving vault, the percolations of which
had discolored the earth!
Terrible!
A similar condition of things exists in
every village and city where we'll water
is used, and though the filtering which
the fluids receive in passing through the
earth may give them a clear appearance,
yet the poison and disease remains,
though the water may look never 30
clear.
| 1t is still worse with the farmer, for
the drainage from the barn-yard and the
slops from the kitchen eventually find
their way into the family we'll!
The same condition of things exists in
our large cities, whose water supplies are
rivers fed by little streams that carry of
the filth and drainage from houses. This
"water" is eventually drunk by rich and
poor alike with great evil.
Some cautious people resort to the filter
for purifying this water, but even the
filter does not remove this poison, for
water of the most deadly character may
pass through this filter and become clear,
yet the poison disguised is there.
They who use filters know that they
must be renewed at regular periods, for
even though they do not take out all the
impurity, they soon become foul.
Now in like manner the human kid
neys act "a filter for the blood, and il
they are filed up with Impurities and
become foul, like the filter, all the blood
in the system coursing through them be-
comes bad, for it is now conceded fact
that the kidneys are the chief means
whereby the blood is purified. These
organs are filled with thousands OF hair
like tubes which drain the impurities
from the blood, as the sewer pipes drain
. impurities from our houses.
II sewer pipe breaks under the house
the sewage escapes into the earth and
fills the house with poisonous gas; 80 il
any of the thousand and one little hair
r like sewer tubes of the kidneys breah
down, the entire body is affected by this
awful poison.
It is a scientific fact that the kidney,
have few nerves of sensation; and, con
seauently, disease may exist in these
organs for a long time and not be sus
pected by the individual. II is imposs
, BILE to filter or take the death out OF the
blood " hen the least arrangement exists
in these organs. and if tho blood il not
, filtered then the uric acil, O; kline,
poison. removable ONLY by Warmers SAFE
cure, accumulates in the system and at
tacks any organ, producing nine out O

Kidney disease may be known to exis

O ordinary health without apparent know,
cause, and it should be understood by al
n that the greatest peril exists. and is in
